Bug Description
If I open some applications, then I minimize one it leaves behind an invisible window until I restore the window.
Steps to reproduce:
1. open firefox, evolution and rhythmbox
2. make sure they are overlapping in some manner
3. minimize rhythmbox
4. try to click in evolution or firefox where rhythmbox used to be. Focus is not changed and mouse clicks do not go to the window you are clicking on
If I click the rhythmbox icon in the Launcher (ie, unminimize it), then mouse clicks, etc operate as expected. This is not rhythmbox specific-- eg if I minimize evolution the same things happens.
I did enable the copytex plugin today as mentioned in bug #771521 since it is now supposed to be the default. I am up to date as of a few minutes ago.
WORKAROUND: don't minimize anything
